The Hearst Castle
Hearst Castle is a park on the central California coast and a National Historic Landmark. It was designed by Julia Morgan for William Randolph Hearst from 1919 until 1947. In 1957, the owner donated the fortune to the state of California. Since that time it has been a state historic park where its large collection of art and antiques are open for public tours. Despite its location far from any urban center, the site attracts roughly one million visitors per year.

• Tour One is recommended for first time visitors. It now includes the movie, Hearst Castle: Building the Dream.
• Tour Two gives visitors a closer look at the main house's upper floors, Mr. Hearst's private suite, the libraries, and the kitchen.
• Tour Three looks at the Castle's North Wing, guest rooms and guest house Casa Del Monte.
